Micah's test results are back and he does NOT have Celiac!!
To say I'm happy would be an understatement. Although it is manageable, I was not looking forward to the change in diet and the restrictions that he would have as a forever chore for eating.
He does have H. Pylori and we will begin treatment of that tonight for 2 weeks. It's a combination of two antibiotics and the reflux med that he already takes. Then, unless it shows resistance, we will be done. Yep, two weeks and maybe there will be an end to the diapers he's been dealing with for almost three months. Two more weeks...
Thanks for all the info and help that has been provided to us as far as the H. Pylori and Celiac goes. I am so grateful to have resources and people that have said "been there and it will be ok!"
WHEW!
I have more updates to post but that one was the biggie, so the rest can wait ;)
That's a relief. Here's hoping the meds do the job and that's that. Wishing sweet Micah all better.
ReplyDeleteI know all about H.Pylori as my partner has this nasty bug - although IS resistant to the antibiotics. As well as being wheat intolerant...oh and problems with lactose and glucose. Altered diet helps greatly.
